Answer:
Abu’l Fazl felt that taswir had a great power to make the objects alive.
Explanation:
According to him, Taswir was not only for the beauty of the book which was used in Mughal chronicles but it had a great power for communicating ideas about the Mughal Empire and his Kingdom. The use of Taswir in the book created a tension between rulers and Ulema.
